Jej Vsost Beka, princezna z Bahnova (2026)

This childrens book, whose contents are in Czech, follows Juki, a girl who says she has a bad temper and is often angry, shouting and hitting the ground with her fists. One day, she throws her keys into a drain in anger, beginning a journey through an underground world that is dirty, magical and wonderfully beautiful. Her guide is Princess Sludge, an unattractive muddy creature who grows when Juki misbehaves and shrinks when she is kind. Together they explore the Anger Archive, the Museum of Irritations, the Black Jungle and Devils Pool, accompanied by adorable Kaknci. Beatrice Alemagna creates a remarkable story full of loving respect: anger may look unpleasant, hurt others and make a mess, but just as muddy hands can be washed, anger can also be washed away.
